The details

About this event

Tooth and Nail Studio offers a unique opportunity for teens to explore their creativity with clay. Over four days, participants will learn to construct and sculpt their own dioramas, choosing from real or imaginary settings. This camp is not just about learning techniques; it's about bringing personal visions to life in a supportive environment.

Located in Milwaukee, the studio provides all the materials and guidance needed for young artists to thrive. With limited spots available, it's an intimate setting where each participant receives personalized attention. Whether your teen is an experienced artist or just starting out, this camp is a fantastic way to develop new skills and make something truly unique.

From the organizer

In this four day camp, students will make their own mini worlds out of clay! Each mini world will be unique to the students creative vision - they will be invited to choose a real or imaginary place that they want to bring to life. Students will learn slab construction to build the desired shape of their diorama and then learn a variety of sculpting techniques to create details in the landscape and even create characters to inhabit their world if they wish.

How it feels

The details organizers don't always put in the description — pulled from the room, the crowd, and what people remember afterward.

The room

Library rules. Whispers and a calm body — this is not a talking-out-loud room.

The crowd

Sweet spot is 3–6 people actively doing the thing together.
